The medieval synagogue was spared destruction in 1938 by reason of it having been converted into a merchant's warehouse following the pogrom against the Jews in 1349, In the ninteenth century the upper level became a dance hall and the surviving fittings and decorations are themselves an interesting piece of social history. The synagogue itself was only rediscovered in the recent past and has been carefully conserved. I knew almost nothing of this remarkable building, but found it fascinating and moving.
